...Creative work is also done to balance formulaic writing with more free individual expression. I am an English major, who taught English grades 9-12 for many years in a highly competitive high school. I also taught reading classes with English credit.

I have a PhD in Physics from Tufts University (2006). My main occupation is teaching undergraduate Physics at local colleges. On occasion I tutor college or high school students in physics. I like helping students one on one; my approach is direct and interactive.

...For my internship, I worked for a year in Schenectady, NY which has a 70% poverty rate and a 52% high school graduation rate. I frequently incorporated study skills into my classroom instruction to help my students pass English and the NY Regents. I have also independently tutored 3 different students with special needs.

...I have always found chemistry to be a very exciting subject, and I hope to make my students feel the same way. I emphasize understanding over memorization, and try to use real life problems to teach basic laws and principles. Each student is different and learns differently, and I have had personal experience tailoring instructions to their unique strengths.

...I've worked with students specifically in the following subjects: Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, U.S. History, World History, and European History. I am HQT in English and can work with students on American and British Literature.
